Bugoy New Member Philippines 8 Posts	Posted 06/02/2017 10:02 pm I recently purchased a 2017 1 oz silver Australian Kangaroo coin. In my search through the internet, it says in coin news and even Perth Mint that the micro-engraved A is in the first A of AUSTRALIAN (left leg) like in 2016. I checked my coin and found the engraved A in the last A of AUSTRALIAN (right leg of the A). I don't think my coin is a fake as I tested it and comparing it with the 2016 its identical in dimensions and weight. Hope someone can shed light into this.

Bugoy New Member Philippines 8 Posts	Posted 06/03/2017 08:35 am Thanks MR, I actually found about it by accident. When I was searching for fake 2017 kangaroos, picture popped up showing the engraved A in the 3rd A of AUSTRALIAN which prompted me to look in the area. I hope its a variant. Anyone findings the A engraving in the first A of Australia ? Report this Post to the Staff
